CVCO55CL-0038-0042

A voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) is a type of oscillator where the frequency of the output signal is controlled by an input voltage. The CVCO55CL-0038-0042 is a high-performance VCO that is ideal for use in communication, CATV, SONET appications, wireless base stations, microwave radios and other telecommunications and instrumentation applications. It features frequency coverage from 38 MHz to 42 MHz, with adjustable center frequency from 38.00 MHz to 42.00 MHz and adjustable duty cycle from 50% to 75%.

Voltage controlled oscillators are used in various applications requiring frequency stability and accuracy. The output frequency is controlled by an externally applied control voltage and therefore the output frequency is dependent on the control voltage. This allows for an incredibly precise control over the output frequency and simplifies the design process. The CVCO55CL-0038-0042 is ideal for applications that require very accurate, stable frequency operation over a wide range of temperatures.

The working principle of a VCO is simple and elegant. An oscillator is a circuit designed to generate an alternating signal of a certain frequency. A voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) is similar in that it produces an alternating signal, but the frequency of the signal is dependent on the input voltage. The input voltage can be varied to control the output frequency. This means that the CVCO55CL-0038-0042 can be used to generate signals with very low jitter and can be used to generate frequencies from 38 MHz to 42 MHz.

The CVCO55CL-0038-0042 is also built with a temperature stabilized crystal oscillator (TCXO) for improved frequency accuracy and stability. The TCXO uses feedback and crystal tuning for enhanced accuracy. The CVCO55CL-0038-0042 also features electronically adjustable center frequency and adjustable duty cycle from 50% to 75%. These features allow for even more precise control of the output signal.

The CVCO55CL-0038-0042 is a versatile and reliable VCO that can be used in a variety of applications requiring very precise frequency control. It is ideal for use in communication, CATV, SONET appications, wireless base stations, microwave radios and other telecommunications and instrumentation applications. With its adjustable frequency and duty cycle, it can provide for even more precise control of the output signal. The TCXO provides for improved frequency accuracy and stability, making the CVCO55CL-0038-0042 an ideal VCO for applications requiring high-performance and precision.
